My realy first Frozen Engine Un-Froze!

Well I needed the flywheel cover because I had the wrong one for my PW. I went out and removed the one off the Command Car Bell Housing took it in to clean it up and saw 1 1/2 inches of rust in the bottom also notice the teeth shape of the flywheel in it. Started to clean it and it fell out! It was ICE!! I went out and tried to turn the Command Cars Engine over again and it turns NICE!! It was realy frozen but it was ice holding the flywheel! Great Day got the parts I needed for the PW and now have a good 1941 Engine like the Old Man said. Feel kind of bad now telling him, why did you say it was a good engine and it won't turn over?? Guess I better take a compression test on it. Mark H.
